My first earthquake........

I've lived in CA for a long time and it doesn't ever get easier. The worst part is your body shaking even after the quake is over! I was in SF for the 89 quake. I seriously thought that was "The One"
Stay safe people. It's a crazy world out there. Anything can happen in an instant. Be prepared!

PS I'll take an earthquake over a hurricane anytime!

Reporting from CT, we felt the ground shake. My mom thought the kitchen was collapsing, and at first I thought I was just really dizzy . The counters and the floors moved around.

Never get them up here, but according to the newscasters the soil is so loose her that earthquakes from other states can easily be felt.

Hope you all are safe, and CONTINUE to be safe. The hurricane... erg... had a tornado 10 minutes away in Massechussets, I think last month. I was driving my mother to the doctor during that one. Sky turned yellow and it got really windy. It did a lot of damage, but could've been worse. Every so often it seems nature must show us that we're not really in charge here.

Nope, never felt it at all here in Australia. I must have been asleep at that time.
